The Amazing Org-mode

  by zms

When I found Org-mode after having tried dozens of task/todo management software, it seemed too simplistic and spartan at first. After overcoming the initial resistance to its deceptively simple appearance and Emacs' apparently complex key strokes; now I use it for:

1. capturing ideas
2. planning projects
3. scheduling tasks
4. reminding appointments
5. tracking time spent on tasks
6. preparing weekly ... [More] timesheets
7. doing weekly reviews
8. recording bookmarks
9. linking to web, files and emails
10. authoring documents with exports to HTML and PDF (using LaTeX)

I just can not be but marveled at the simplicity and depth of features, simple design, knowledgeable community around it and the openness of it's lead author to ideas.

Heartily recommended!
